John Marzetti (July 28, 1836 – December 25, 1899) was an Italian-American grocer, restaurateur, real estate developer, and philanthropist who resided in Columbus, Ohio. Accounts differ as to whether Marzetti is related to Teresa Marzetti, another Italian immigrant who founded the T. Marzetti Company in Columbus in 1896, or if he is the namesake for the midwestern pasta casserole Johnny Marzetti.
